Zilia cried as she looked at the ring in her hand and touched it. "This is beautiful," she whispered between her sobs.
"You're not supposed to cry then." His thumbs again brushed away the tears from her damp cheeks. She wrapped her arms around him, hugging him tightly.
"Thank you." She had a lot of things to say, but in that moment, she couldn't.
Casaio caressed the back of her head. "I find my way to you. That's the kind of love I carry for you. I'm sorry for not understanding what kind of position you were being put in all these years. That's why it took so much time to be like this."
"No. I should be sorry for breaking your heart by rejecting your proposal whenever you asked me to marry you, Cas." She pulled away and looked into his eyes. A smile bubbled on her face. "I love you."
